Top 10 Reasons George Soros Is Dangerous

"1. Gives billions to left-wing causes: Soros started the Open Society Institute in 1993 as a way to spread his wealth to progressive causes. Using Open Society as a conduit, Soros has given more than $7 billion to a who�??s who of left-wing groups. This partial list of recipients of Soros�?? money says it all: ACORN, Apollo Alliance, National Council of La Raza, Tides Foundation, Huffington Post, Southern Poverty Law Center, Soujourners, People for the American Way, Planned Parenthood, and the National Organization for Women.
2. Influence on U.S. elections: Soros once said that removing President George W. Bush from office in 2004 was the “central focus of my life.” He put his money where his mouth is, giving $23.58 million to various 527 groups dedicated to defeating Bush. His early financial support helped jump-start Barack Obama�??s political career. Soros hosted a 2004 fund-raiser for Obama when he was running for the Illinois Senate and gave the maximum-allowed contribution within hours of Obama�??s announcement that he was running for President.
3. Wants to curtail American sovereignty: Soros would like nothing better than for America to become subservient to international bodies. He wants more power for groups such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, even while saying the U.S. role in the IMF should be �??downsized.�?� In 1998, he wrote: �??Insofar as there are collective interests that transcend state boundaries, the sovereignty of states must be subordinated to international law and international institutions.�?�

4. Media Matters: Soros is a financial backer of Media Matters for America, a progressive media watchdog group that hyperventilates over any conservative view that makes it into the mainstream media. Now its founder, David Brock, has openly declared war on Fox News, telling Politico that the group was mounting �??guerrilla warfare and sabotage�?� against the cable news channel, and would try to disrupt the commercial interests of owner Rupert Murdoch�??an odd mission for a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt educational foundation that is barred from participating in partisan political activity.

5. MoveOn.org: Soros has been a major funder of MoveOn.org, a progressive advocacy group and political action committee that raises millions for liberal candidates. This is the group that had on its website an ad comparing President George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler and ran the infamous �??General Betray Us�?� ad in the New York Times, disparaging the integrity of Gen. David Petraeus.

6. Center for American Progress: Headed by John Podesta, White House chief of staff under President Clinton, the Center for American Progress has been instrumental in providing progressive talking points and policy positions for the Obama administration. There has also been a revolving door between the White House and the Soros-funded think tank, with Obama staffing his administration with many CAP officials.

7. Environmental extremism: Former Obama green jobs czar Van Jones and his leftist environmental ideas have been funded by Soros�?? money at these groups: the Ella Baker Center, Green For All, the Center for American Progress, and the Apollo Alliance, which was instrumental in getting $110 billion in green initiatives included in Obama�??s stimulus package. Soros also funds the Climate Policy Initiative to address global warming and gave Friends of the Earth money to �??integrate a climate equity perspective in the presidential transition.�?�

8. America Coming Together: Soros gave nearly $20 million to this 527 group with the express purpose of defeating President Bush. A massive get-out-the-vote effort, ACT�??s door-to-door canvassing teams included numerous felons, its voter registration drives were riddled with fraud, and it handed out incendiary fliers and made misleading taped phone calls to voters. ACT was fined $775,000 by the Federal Election Commission for violations of various federal campaign finance laws.

9. Currency manipulation: A large part of Soros’ multibillion-dollar fortune has come from manipulating currencies. During the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad accused him of bringing down the nation�??s currency through his trading activities, and in Thailand he was called an �??economic war criminal.�?� Known as �??The Man who Broke the Bank of England,�?� Soros initiated a British financial crisis by dumping 10 billion sterling, forcing the devaluation of the currency and gaining a billion-dollar profit.

10. Delusions: Soros has repeatedly said that he sees himself as a messianic figure. Who but a megalomaniac would make these comments? �??I admit that I have always harbored an exaggerated view of my self-importance�??to put it bluntly, I fancied myself as some kind of god�?� or �??I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise I might end up in the loony bin.�?� If only the loony bin were an option. As it is, one of the wealthiest men in the world is using his billions to impose a radical agenda on America."

Now....You may agree with all that but I don't and most real Americans don't.

Why would these activities be wrong, particularly in view of the funding activities of the anti-American right-wing billionaires in the U.S.?


you cant use bad behavior to justify other bad behavior,,,all it does is prove you know their behavior is bad

Nice attempt at deflection. So you are trying to slip out of accounting for trash like the Koch brothers, Betsy and Eric Prince/Devos (Betsy the fundie thief and rapist supporter and Eric the mercenary), and the rest. There has been a whole cadre of right-wing fascist billionaires funding attacks on the freedoms of Americans. Yes I do mean "fascists," as in people who want to install fascism and a dirty theocracy in place of the legitimate government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

I said most Americans don’t agree with Soros’ methods. I didn’t try to faux moralize like you or make childish tit-for-tat arguments like you did.

You are the one who said that "most Americans don't agree with Soros' methods," a blanket assertion for which there is no proof whatsoever. Go on. Explain the antics of the billionaires I have mentioned. Don't evade your responsibility to explain this garbage in our midst.

Soros is a Hungarian, and IMHO, its just wrong for foreign billionaires to try and rig our elections
 
Soros is most notably known as a predatory currency speculator. Many consider him a central figure in attacks on Thai and Malaysian currencies in 1997, the results of which were not good for those countries' economies. He attempted the same in Hong Kong but failed. He's also known as the man who broke the bank of England, the results of which are said to have cost the UK taxpayers billions.

Coupled with his predatory practices are his efforts to destroy national sovereignty in many places. This is what has earned him many well deserved enemies.


Yep. He is sowing instability in the west in order to capitalize on the opportunities for currency speculation.

The notion that he is hated because he is Jewish is a lie perpetrated by those leftists who DO actually hate Jews and are in league with the very Islamists Soros is helping set loose upon Europe in order to destabilize it.
 
Nice attempt at deflection. So you are trying to slip out of accounting for trash like the Koch brothers, Betsy and Eric Prince/Devos (Betsy the fundie thief and rapist supporter and Eric the mercenary), and the rest. There has been a whole cadre of right-wing fascist billionaires funding attacks on the freedoms of Americans. Yes I do mean "fascists," as in people who want to install fascism and a dirty theocracy in place of the legitimate government of the people, by the people, and for the people.

I just gave facts to Tommy about why most Americans dislike Soros. I'm not subject to your straw-man set up and need not explain what you can't.

Not "most Americans." Straighten up. Do you get your information from polls? The only people I've come across in the U.S. who dislike Soros are right-wingers on the internet. I have lived in densely populated areas in the United States all of my life. Should I go out into the street and ask passersby whether they like Soros or not? I don't think that most Americans have ever even heard of him.

The Main Stream Media has really done a good job at hiding the Soros story from the American people. If folks would know more about Soros or Sauron it would be a different story I think.

The only people I come across that dislike Trump are TDSers like you who believe any lie told about him. As far as Soros goes, I never said I or anyone hated him, I gave Tommy FACTS about what Soros is up to. I would advise you to leave that area of 'dense' people, your mind is being warped.

I don't think that most Americans have ever even heard of him.
hey!!! you ever gonna tell us what those billionaire RWers did ??? what freedoms were they against??
 
I understand that many people dont like centre left politics and resent his support for the same.

But it is surely a positive thing that a rich man wants to help the poor and downtrodden ?

Is it because he is Jewish ?
His holdings came from people of every walk. In supporting those whose chief end is communism, he is no friend of the Constitution of the United States of America, and crooks find him an easy mark for them to profit from.

Top 10 Reasons George Soros Is Dangerous

"1. Gives billions to left-wing causes: Soros started the Open Society Institute in 1993 as a way to spread his wealth to progressive causes. Using Open Society as a conduit, Soros has given more than $7 billion to a who�??s who of left-wing groups. This partial list of recipients of Soros�?? money says it all: ACORN, Apollo Alliance, National Council of La Raza, Tides Foundation, Huffington Post, Southern Poverty Law Center, Soujourners, People for the American Way, Planned Parenthood, and the National Organization for Women.

2. Influence on U.S. elections:
Soros once said that removing President George W. Bush from office in 2004 was the “central focus of my life.” He put his money where his mouth is, giving $23.58 million to various 527 groups dedicated to defeating Bush. His early financial support helped jump-start Barack Obama�??s political career. Soros hosted a 2004 fund-raiser for Obama when he was running for the Illinois Senate and gave the maximum-allowed contribution within hours of Obama�??s announcement that he was running for President.

3. Wants to curtail American sovereignty:
Soros would like nothing better than for America to become subservient to international bodies. He wants more power for groups such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, even while saying the U.S. role in the IMF should be �??downsized.�?� In 1998, he wrote: �??Insofar as there are collective interests that transcend state boundaries, the sovereignty of states must be subordinated to international law and international institutions.�?�

4. Media Matters: Soros is a financial backer of Media Matters for America, a progressive media watchdog group that hyperventilates over any conservative view that makes it into the mainstream media. Now its founder, David Brock, has openly declared war on Fox News, telling Politico that the group was mounting �??guerrilla warfare and sabotage�?� against the cable news channel, and would try to disrupt the commercial interests of owner Rupert Murdoch�??an odd mission for a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt educational foundation that is barred from participating in partisan political activity.

5. MoveOn.org: Soros has been a major funder of MoveOn.org, a progressive advocacy group and political action committee that raises millions for liberal candidates. This is the group that had on its website an ad comparing President George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler and ran the infamous �??General Betray Us�?� ad in the New York Times, disparaging the integrity of Gen. David Petraeus.

6. Center for American Progress: Headed by John Podesta, White House chief of staff under President Clinton, the Center for American Progress has been instrumental in providing progressive talking points and policy positions for the Obama administration. There has also been a revolving door between the White House and the Soros-funded think tank, with Obama staffing his administration with many CAP officials.

7. Environmental extremism: Former Obama green jobs czar Van Jones and his leftist environmental ideas have been funded by Soros�?? money at these groups: the Ella Baker Center, Green For All, the Center for American Progress, and the Apollo Alliance, which was instrumental in getting $110 billion in green initiatives included in Obama�??s stimulus package. Soros also funds the Climate Policy Initiative to address global warming and gave Friends of the Earth money to �??integrate a climate equity perspective in the presidential transition.�?�

8. America Coming Together: Soros gave nearly $20 million to this 527 group with the express purpose of defeating President Bush. A massive get-out-the-vote effort, ACT�??s door-to-door canvassing teams included numerous felons, its voter registration drives were riddled with fraud, and it handed out incendiary fliers and made misleading taped phone calls to voters. ACT was fined $775,000 by the Federal Election Commission for violations of various federal campaign finance laws.

9. Currency manipulation: A large part of Soros’ multibillion-dollar fortune has come from manipulating currencies. During the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad accused him of bringing down the nation�??s currency through his trading activities, and in Thailand he was called an �??economic war criminal.�?� Known as �??The Man who Broke the Bank of England,�?� Soros initiated a British financial crisis by dumping 10 billion sterling, forcing the devaluation of the currency and gaining a billion-dollar profit.

10. Delusions: Soros has repeatedly said that he sees himself as a messianic figure. Who but a megalomaniac would make these comments? �??I admit that I have always harbored an exaggerated view of my self-importance�??to put it bluntly, I fancied myself as some kind of god�?� or �??I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise I might end up in the loony bin.�?� If only the loony bin were an option. As it is, one of the wealthiest men in the world is using his billions to impose a radical agenda on America."

Now....You may agree with all that Tommy, but most real Americans don't.
I dont see a problem with any of this .
 
I understand that many people dont like centre left politics and resent his support for the same.

Is it because he is Jewish ?

Judging from the lack of complaints about billionaires in the U.S. who claim to adhere to the Christian faith and fund right-wing politics, I think that the portrayal of Soros stems from his center-left politics and his Jewish religion.

The idiots who criticize Soros never mention the Koch (John Birchers) or Walton billionaire families, Andy Beal, Darwin Deason, to name a few, the Prince/DeVos family, who have directly contributed megabucks to right-wing causes in the U.S. BTW: Betsy's brother Eric is a well-known mercenary, Betsy tries to steal our education money, among other things, and they both claim to be of the Christian faith.
Christians are not welcomed or tolerated by the Democrat bigots

Now....You may agree with all that Tommy, but most real Americans don't.
I dont see a problem with any of this .
You don't? I'm American, not British, but I've always liked Queen Elizabeth after seeing her speech as a young woman thanking the Americans for our part in helping Great Britain contain the Nazi bombings of London and other important British targets that were bombed early on in WWII.

As a consequence of sympathy for the Queen's good causes, I wasn't happy to read that George Soros figured out a way to destroy the banking industry in England over some hatred he had for someone over there. I just thought it was petty. And it hurt a lot of Brits. :(

"1. Gives billions to left-wing causes: Soros started the Open Society Institute in 1993 as a way to spread his wealth to progressive causes. Using Open Society as a conduit, Soros has given more than $7 billion to a who�??s who of left-wing groups. This partial list of recipients of Soros�?? money says it all: ACORN, Apollo Alliance, National Council of La Raza, Tides Foundation, Huffington Post, Southern Poverty Law Center, Soujourners, People for the American Way, Planned Parenthood, and the National Organization for Women.

2. Influence on U.S. elections:
Soros once said that removing President George W. Bush from office in 2004 was the “central focus of my life.” He put his money where his mouth is, giving $23.58 million to various 527 groups dedicated to defeating Bush. His early financial support helped jump-start Barack Obama�??s political career. Soros hosted a 2004 fund-raiser for Obama when he was running for the Illinois Senate and gave the maximum-allowed contribution within hours of Obama�??s announcement that he was running for President.

3. Wants to curtail American sovereignty:
Soros would like nothing better than for America to become subservient to international bodies. He wants more power for groups such as the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, even while saying the U.S. role in the IMF should be �??downsized.�?� In 1998, he wrote: �??Insofar as there are collective interests that transcend state boundaries, the sovereignty of states must be subordinated to international law and international institutions.�?�

4. Media Matters: Soros is a financial backer of Media Matters for America, a progressive media watchdog group that hyperventilates over any conservative view that makes it into the mainstream media. Now its founder, David Brock, has openly declared war on Fox News, telling Politico that the group was mounting �??guerrilla warfare and sabotage�?� against the cable news channel, and would try to disrupt the commercial interests of owner Rupert Murdoch�??an odd mission for a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt educational foundation that is barred from participating in partisan political activity.

5. MoveOn.org: Soros has been a major funder of MoveOn.org, a progressive advocacy group and political action committee that raises millions for liberal candidates. This is the group that had on its website an ad comparing President George W. Bush to Adolf Hitler and ran the infamous �??General Betray Us�?� ad in the New York Times, disparaging the integrity of Gen. David Petraeus.

6. Center for American Progress: Headed by John Podesta, White House chief of staff under President Clinton, the Center for American Progress has been instrumental in providing progressive talking points and policy positions for the Obama administration. There has also been a revolving door between the White House and the Soros-funded think tank, with Obama staffing his administration with many CAP officials.

7. Environmental extremism: Former Obama green jobs czar Van Jones and his leftist environmental ideas have been funded by Soros�?? money at these groups: the Ella Baker Center, Green For All, the Center for American Progress, and the Apollo Alliance, which was instrumental in getting $110 billion in green initiatives included in Obama�??s stimulus package. Soros also funds the Climate Policy Initiative to address global warming and gave Friends of the Earth money to �??integrate a climate equity perspective in the presidential transition.�?�

8. America Coming Together: Soros gave nearly $20 million to this 527 group with the express purpose of defeating President Bush. A massive get-out-the-vote effort, ACT�??s door-to-door canvassing teams included numerous felons, its voter registration drives were riddled with fraud, and it handed out incendiary fliers and made misleading taped phone calls to voters. ACT was fined $775,000 by the Federal Election Commission for violations of various federal campaign finance laws.

9. Currency manipulation: A large part of Soros’ multibillion-dollar fortune has come from manipulating currencies. During the 1997 Asian financial crisis, Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir bin Mohamad accused him of bringing down the nation�??s currency through his trading activities, and in Thailand he was called an �??economic war criminal.�?� Known as �??The Man who Broke the Bank of England,�?� Soros initiated a British financial crisis by dumping 10 billion sterling, forcing the devaluation of the currency and gaining a billion-dollar profit.

10. Delusions: Soros has repeatedly said that he sees himself as a messianic figure. Who but a megalomaniac would make these comments? �??I admit that I have always harbored an exaggerated view of my self-importance�??to put it bluntly, I fancied myself as some kind of god�?� or �??I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise I might end up in the loony bin.�?� If only the loony bin were an option. As it is, one of the wealthiest men in the world is using his billions to impose a radical agenda on America."

Now....You may agree with all that Tommy, but most real Americans don't.
I dont see a problem with any of this .

That's fine, but you aren't an American.
